𝑺𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒕 𝑺𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒉𝒏𝒂𝒅𝒆 ~ Toccata in D minor by Gaston Beliér

Hello everyone! 👋

Today, I'm celebrating 500 subscribers! 🥳 I know it's not a lot compared to many channels, but for me, it means a lot! 🥹 Thanks for your support, everyone!

Fun fact: Beliér wrote this Toccata in honor of the great French organist, Eugène Gigout!

I remember hearing a fellow organ student playing this at their Senior recital and thinking: "Wow! That sounds so cool! I wanna learn it too!" Soo.... here I am! 😄

Also, I don't know why I have such a worried look on my face at the beginning... maybe I was just concentrating! 😂 😅 ALSO also, sorry for the little background noises and the mechanical sound of the keys and pedals! Just think of it as a pure, organic sound! 😎🤌

Anyway, have a great day/night and may God bless you! 💕

~ Sarah
